Do you ever get a little
mixed by reading advertise
ments? Strange if you don't.
Two or three or half a dozen
stores can't each have the
chest" or cheapest" Of the
same thing. Must be mis-
takes somewhere.
1t doesn't follow that a
merchant is deliberately ly-
ing to you when he makes a
wrong statement like that.
1t may be due to not know
ing, or to false reasoning.
Perhaps he puts a meagre
profit on his cost price and
assumes that no other dealer
will get below him. Not a
safe thing to do. Some one
else may buy lower than he,
or sell for cost, or less. 1t
Eisn't safe to make a positive
. statement in such matters.
} 1t isn't wise. A confiding
, customer may in that way
be deceived once or twice
8 but not often. A sound
healthy business can't be
built on such a basis-eithel
; OF ignorance or fraud.

The Biscuits We Eat.

The modern biscuit has very many
more shapes and forms than did the bis
cult Of our grandmother's days. Then
the only thing thought to be entitled to
the hallowcd name Of biscuit was sort
Of plain light cake, made Of -four, cream
and soda, that was wholesome and took
the place Of bread for the morning or
evening meal These light, fiaky, grand
mother biscuits were generally served
hot, with fresh yellow butter and honey
or maple syrup, and a person who did not
relish such meal was pronounced sick
or in possession Of an unappreciative ap-
petite. In modern cookery there Is q
variety Of biscuits. A host of different
shaped cakes and crackers are now called
biscuits. The cakes are sweet, as are
under that name. The grandmother bis
cult was designed to be eaten hot, but the
modern biscuit is made with q view to
last for weeks, and not consumed until
cold. There are number Of biscuit fac
tories in Chicago that do q large business
in their line, shipping their goods to all
parts Of the country. They are made in
different shapes-square, round or scol-
loped-and one grade il cut to represent
various animals. There. are also the
brown flour biscuits and the oatmeal
cakes, ginger snaps and cracknells, all
going under the general Head Of biscuits.
These bakeries occupy extensive buildings,
employ hundreds Of hands, and, in fact,
constitute one Of the prominent industries
Of the city.-Chicago Herald.

Another 'peculiarity Of the Saguenay.
which adds to its impressiveness, is the
absence-the almost total absence-of life
upon it. For forty miles the yacht sailed
on between its mountainous sides, and
from the mouth 20 Cape Eternity, save
the white porpoises near the entrance, l
never saw bird or fish or animal Of any
kind. 1t was in truth q solemn sail The
plot said scarcely word during the en-
tire passage, and l sat at the helm and
steered, silently looking. The wind was
strong, blowing straight up between the
lofty sides as through funnel, with the
force OF half gale, and the yacht raced
through the black water leaving q long
wake Of white froth astern; but being
sharp at the stem and narrow in her lines
she cut the dark current like q knife,
noiselessly. Once l thought saw a seals
head, but il vanished and was not sure,
and in all that forty miles Of flight, wind
driven, with the August sun shining
brightly in the sky, l saw no gull flying
overhead, no loon upon the water, no
hawk or eagle circling above the lofty
cliffs, nor any animal, whether small or
great, moving along the shores. Surely,
it was a strange sail, and could only look
and marvel at the solitude through which
was SO noisclessly passing.-W. H. H.
Murray in New York World.

Tell me something about the practical
work Of your profession, colonel"
There is one very usual blunder that
is made by many in regard to our work
which perhaps might interest you. That
is the idea that if we lose part of a sen
tencc some important word will suggest
what comes next. Take a long hand sen
tence like this, for example: L went this
morning to see an - friend OF - who has
very and found much better. ;
Now, it is easy enough TO supply the
blanks here by the Use OF a very little in
Cenuity. An friend is undoubtedly
an old friend;' the next blank is mine
and when we have read the and found
thiml much better We make the other
blanks tell us who has [beenl very (sick. !
Well, people say why cannot the same
method he used in our reports' Simply
because We depend upon our context for
the word, instead Of on the word for the
context. Take our example again. The
stenographic character which represents
this may also under different circum-
stances be things or thanks or these
'Bsns' in stenographic character standing
alone is perfectly unintelligible, because
it may be business, or absence. OF course
We can vOcalize, that is, indicate, the
vowels Of word, but generally We
haven't any time for that. Unusual
words, such as 'multifOrm,' We nearly
always v0calize. New York Times.
